Robert Kime Design discusses
history, approach and sensibility...
Robert Kime Founder
"My enthusiasm around interior design grew out of a fascination with history and art; the idea being that a juxtaposition of elements makes for original and interesting rooms. Design projects today are the same as always - part interpretation, part reading between the lines and part intuition."
Orlando Atty Managing Director
"Harnessing the integrity of Robert's approach to interior design, we realise that we don't really have a lot of rules. Instead we do what feels right for the room, the house and of course, the client. It all has to balance - just like shopping for antiques - there's the history and the tangible effect today - they have to add up."
Claire Jackson Director, Head of Design
& Projects
"Since joining Robert in 2000 I have learnt from him, that every house has an identity. We work hard to see how each client can get the most out of their home. No matter the size of the project, everything we do is for a reason which is satisfying for both client and designer, making for good communication and an enduring sensibility."
Sally Daly Design Project Manager
"I have worked in many settings and countries - since 1996: from apartments in Manhattan to an island home in Norway. Our focus on conservation in the planning and design process is coloured by our experience working closely alongside local craftsmen over the years. This attention to detail is integral to Robert Kime Design."
Billie Worrall-Thompson Design Assistant
"I am fascinated by the depth and scope of the projects at Robert Kime Design and I focus on the layering of colour, pattern and quality craftsmanship to design comfortable homes, rich with character. Delving into our array of antique fabrics and collectables and working with client's tastes and visions, allows us to create unique, timeless interiors."
Shaun Lovering Specialist Decorator
"I’ve been working with Robert Kime Design since 1998, adding the layers of decorative work that speaks to their sensibility of comfort and ease. While our work is often in period homes and listed properties, I use the same approach in all projects - creating a fine-tuned series of finishes that work well with the broader schemes, which in the end look as if we have never been there."
